  1. “Do nothing when you’re angry.
  2. Do nothing when you’re paranoid.
  3. Do nothing when you’re anxious.
  4. Do nothing when you’re tired.
  5. Do nothing when you want to be liked.

Think about when you’ve been happiest with your life (and if that’s not a reasonable goal then what is?). Is it during those moments when your thoughts have been frenetic and all over the place? Or has it been those moments when your thoughts have been calm – the depths of a peaceful ocean instead of a stormy surface.

It’s when we are in touch with the magic of our silence that we find our inner creators and can change the universe.”

Good advice for any action…

  1. Just because you’re busy doesn’t mean you’re doing something productive. I totally agree. If you’re tired, angry or anxious then take a break. I found a very good article why our brain needs downtime (http://superhuman.ly/2013/11/13/your-brain-needs-more-downtime-heres-why/). It can help you reduce stress and aside from it making you more productive at work, resting/sleeping can make you a healthier and a happier person.
